In the huge square in front of Schönbrunn Palace, there is a huge building with a diameter of tens of meters and a height of more than ten meters, stacked on top of each other like the Tower of Hanoi.

It is a tower-like fountain with numerous statues of cherubs carved into the tower. They have different postures and look lively and moving.

Clear water emerges from the top of the tower and flows down the diversion channel on the tower. Under the action of gravity, the water column forms a hollow overlapping scene. When the sun shines on the fountain, the water splashes like flowing golden sand, which looks particularly gorgeous.

The water inside the fountain is diverted from the Danube by means of underground pipes. When the main valve is opened, the water is sprayed from above under pressure. It then fell to the ground and re-flowed back into the Danube with the help of another pipe.

In an age when there was no electricity or the power of steam, it was breathtaking to be able to build such a fountain with the help of natural water flows.

Just after noon, horse-drawn carriages were already coming and going in the square where the fountain was located. When the carriage stopped, gentlemen and ladies dressed in sewn clothes by famous Italian tailors and covered with gold and precious stones stepped out of the carriage.

These were the nobles who had just participated in the canonization ceremony of Eugen, and the royal banquet attracted them to the venue Schönbrunn Palace early. On such a large occasion, eating and drinking is secondary, and the most important thing is to be able to make friends and exchange information.

Young men and women can also have fun on this occasion and experience new things that they have not yet had time to touch.

In the midst of the crowd, Eugen stood alone under the huge fountain, looking up at the top of the fountain like a contemplative wise man.

After all, they had just met in the morning, and the nobles passing by could naturally recognize the new earl, which gradually attracted the attention and discussion of many people.

They were all speculating about what Count Eugen was thinking when he stood here. Are you thinking about your fame and fortune? Or are you thinking of some elegant and noble lady?

In fact, Eugen just stared at the faintly visible flash at the top of the fountain, and sighed in his heart: "Wow, what a big sapphire, I want it so much!" ”

"Hello, Count Eugen, what are you doing standing here? Are you missing some beautiful young lady? Suddenly, a voice rang out from the side, disrupting the plan for stealing gems that Eugen had laid out in his mind.

Eugen followed the sound and looked back, only to see a tall middle-aged thin man wearing gold and silver, walking towards him in a regular manner. Looking at this tall and thin man, Eugen only felt very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

The man seemed to see the confusion in Eugen's eyes, and when he walked up to Eugen, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Hello, Count Eugen. I'm Viscount Harris from Stuttgart, whom we met at a banquet in Kasselburg. With that, Viscount Harris's cheeks twitched, causing the two mustaches to shake up and down.

Those who are familiar with Viscount Harris know that a shaky mustache is a sign that he is a little nervous. At this time, Viscount Harris was really a little worried, he was afraid that Eugen had no impression of him at all, which was really a bit embarrassing in front of everyone.

Fortunately, Eugen pondered for a moment, then reached out and shook Viscount Harris's hand, and said with the same kindness: "Oh, hello Viscount Harris, I remember you. ”

Viscount Harris finally breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, if he could, he really didn't want to come and recognize this unruly and difficult Earl Eugen.

However, Eugen became an earl at a young age, and his future prospects are limitless. Being able to make friends with a future big man in advance is of great benefit to their family.

After Eugen asked, he looked at Viscount Harris and asked, "Who are these?" ”

Viscount Harris walked with a noblewoman and a young man, and there seemed to be a man hiding behind them, and Eugen couldn't see them.

"Oh, this is my wife, son Tarta and daughter Mia." Viscount Harris hurriedly introduced sideways, only to find that his daughter was hiding behind very rudely. Viscount Taris was a little angry, so he raised his voice and said, "Mia, what are you doing, come and say hello to Count Eugen." ”

Eugen could also faintly see the swaying figure behind Mrs. Harris and his son Tarta, looking at the pink gauze dress, Eugen's heart was suddenly filled with beautiful fantasies: "Is it a young and beautiful aristocratic lady?" Oh, hehehe, it looks like it's going to be a good acquaintance. ”

At this moment, Mia finally did not dare to disobey Viscount Tharris's order, and slowly walked out from behind Mrs. Harris with small steps.

Eugen felt that the light in front of him dimmed, and it turned out that the sun was blocked. Then, in front of Eugen's eyes, there was a huge "iron tower" two meters high and one meter wide. However, this tower was still wearing a pink dress, two cute and playful ponytails, and a pockmarked face smiled shyly at Eugen, and said wryly: "Hello, Eugen...... Count Eugen. ”

Eugen suddenly felt his legs go limp, and he trembled like a small animal facing a terrifying beast.

He looked at the majestic and mighty Miss Mia with a frightened face, and then looked at Mrs. Harris, who was of moderate stature, and suddenly thought in horror: "My God, brother, how did you hide yourself behind Ling Zun, is this folding yourself?" You've got an arm that's almost thicker than Mrs. Harris's thighs. ”

Eugen turned his head to look at the tall and thin Viscount Harris, and his face was suddenly full of sympathy: "I said brother, you are green, you don't look like you can give birth to this great god with your genes." ”

Because the contrast between the expectation and the reality is too great, Eugen really can't hide his broken heart. Especially Miss Mia's contrasting and cute shyness just now, as if a soldering iron was imprinted in his mind, it kept looping in Eugen's mind for a long time.

Viscount Harris also seemed to realize something, and he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Count Eugen, the little girl's behavior just now is really too rude. ”

Then he looked at Mia again, and said angrily, "Don't apologize to the Earl yet." ”

Although Miss Mia was physically equal to two Viscounts Harris, she listened to her father very much, and when she heard this, she looked at Eugen with a guilty face and said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Earl Eugen, I didn't mean it just now. ”

Surprisingly, Miss Mia's voice was gentle and melodious. After this period of time, the discomfort in Eugen's body calmed down a lot, so he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I just suddenly felt a little dizzy. It could be sunburned, not your fault. ”
